My Favorite Teaching Moment

What I love about teaching is the ability to transmit my own enthusiasm for the educational process to the students. They begin to see that lifelong learning is a major life goal. My favorite moments in teaching are when I run into my former students and see how they have applied education to their lives.

Why I Love Teaching PLS Courses

In previous teacher-training courses, so much of what we covered was dry and often not relevant to the real classroom. When I started taking PLS courses, I was surprised how easily the researched-based information could be applied to the classroom. The commonsense activities give PLS students multiple ideas that fit right into their existing curriculums, without requiring a massive overhaul of their lessons. Every time I teach a course, I feel I have given the PLS students useful activities and strategies that will have an immediate and positive effect in their classes
